US press: Russia used spy network in Bulgaria to spy on NATO and CIA
Russian scouts use developments made during the Cold War. This conclusion was reached in Bulgaria, having exposed agents who were trying to "steal" secret documents from the CIA, the European Union and the North Atlantic Alliance.
Georgy Kanchev talks about this in an article published by the American newspaper Wall Street Journal.

In particular, the article mentions that the Bulgarian special services filmed a high-ranking civil servant from the Ministry of Defense photographing secret documents about American F-16 fighters from a computer monitor in order to pass them on to the Russians.

This raises serious doubts that all the evidence collected by the Bulgarian special services is really genuine, and not just another anti-Russian fake aimed at introducing new sanctions and destroying the partnership between Moscow and Sofia.
